From StarWars.com

"From Lucasfilm comes the first of the Star Wars standalone films, “Rogue One: A Star Wars Story,” an all-new epic adventure. In a time of conflict, a group of unlikely heroes band together on a mission to steal the plans to the Death Star, the Empire’s ultimate weapon of destruction. This key event in the Star Wars timeline brings together ordinary people who choose to do extraordinary things, and in doing so, become part of something greater than themselves. In theaters December 2016."

USA Today also had a cool little two-minute primer on where Rogue One fits into the Star Wars timeline…in case you or someone you know is still confused  as to where it sits. Here’s that:

We still have no word as to when tickets for the film will go on sale. However, we have heard rumors that the 16th may be a date to keep your eyes on. Nothing official, yet. We will keep you posted. Rogue One hits theaters worldwide on December 16.
